摘要: Methods, systems, and circuities for selectively connecting an RF signal to front end circuitry and selectively attenuating the RF signal are disclosed. In one example, an interface circuitry includes switching circuitry and attenuator circuitry. The switching circuitry is connected in series between an output of an amplifier and a front end circuitry configured to transmit a radio frequency (RF) signal output by the amplifier. The switching circuitry connects the output of the amplifier to a selected one or more front end circuitry inputs to create one or more signal paths. The attenuator circuitry is connected between the output of the amplifier and ground to create an attenuation path in a shunt configuration relative to the one or more signal paths. The attenuator circuitry is configured to attenuate the RF signal.

摘要: Embodiments relate to a transformer-based impedance matching network that may dynamically change its characteristic impedance by engaging different inductor branches on a primary side and optionally, on the secondary side. A primary side transformer circuit includes a primary inductor (311) and secondary inductor (321) configured to provide impedance matching over a first frequency band. One or more additional inductor branches (314A, 314B, are switchably coupled to either or both of the primary and secondary inductors to modify the impedance matching characteristics over additional operating frequencies. One or more LC filter branches (321, 322, 326, 327, 336, 330) can be included at the output of the secondary side to filter harmonic frequencies in each of the operating frequency bands.
